Origin Chapter 81: Jade Goddess of Mercy


Not only Wu Zhongyuan was excited, but Wang Xinran was also unable to restrain his excitement. The head and body of the porcelain doll were not far from each other, which showed that Wu Zhongyuan's previous analysis was correct. This porcelain doll was washed out from the grave by rainwater. And it didn't take long to get out.

Looking forward along the winding ravine, and soon, I found another porcelain doll, half buried in the sand, with some weeds attached to it.

This porcelain doll was found by Wu Zhongyuan. After picking it up, he looked at it carefully and found that the porcelain doll was also a porcelain of the Yuan Dynasty. Different, this doll holds a windmill and has a happy smile on his face.

In addition to being excited at this time, Wu Zhongyuan is more fortunate, because the appearance of the second porcelain doll shows that the tomb of Qian Yunzhi's youngest son is closer. In addition, this doll is complete, if it is seen by the nearby farmers If it arrives, it will definitely be picked up, which also indirectly shows that after the tomb was damaged by the rain, no one has been here.

"Look, it's there." Wang Xinran cheered excitedly.

Wu Zhongyuan raised his head when he heard the sound, and followed Wang Xinran's direction to look north. He saw a large number of artifacts, including porcelain dolls, were piled up in the mountains to the north. Most of these artifacts were buried in the sand, and only a small part of them was exposed. .

The pile of utensils was less than ten meters away from the two of them. Wang Xinran shouted and ran over first. Although Wu Zhongyuan was very excited, he walked over. By this time, he was half at ease, because among the utensils There are gold and silver utensils. If someone finds them, they will definitely dig them up and take them away, and never leave part of them.

When Wu Zhongyuan walked over, Wang Xinran had already started digging up the pile of artifacts buried in the sand with his bare hands.

Wu Zhongyuan did not dig together with Wang Xinran, but looked up to observe the situation above. The pile of utensils scattered at the bottom of the ditch was not at the bottom of the ditch. In front of the utensil is a relatively steep mountain wall, about five meters high. Some small shrubs grow on the stone wall. In the upper middle area of ​​the mountain wall, there is a circular hole with a diameter of about one meter. At that time, the opening of the circular hole was blocked, and what blocked it was a rotten and broken wooden coffin.

While Wu Zhongyuan looked up, Wang Xinran had dug out a lot of utensils from the sand mound, most of which were gold and silver utensils. These utensils were mostly living utensils, including gold cups, golden bowls, silver plates, and silver chopsticks. These utensils are beautifully made, but they are small in size, and they are obviously specially made for children to be buried with.

In addition to these, there are also several porcelain dolls, these dolls have different shapes and hold different objects, but without exception, the play posture and happy expression.

"If we arrive a few days late, the consequences will be disastrous." Wang Xin was then terrified.

"We should be glad that this is not the busy season for farming, nor is it the season to cut firewood." Wu Zhongyuan looked up at the circular hole on the stone wall above. The circular hole was completely blocked by the coffin inside. The coffin is bigger than the round hole. If so, how did the coffin fit in?

Wang Xinran didn't know that Wu Zhongyuan had made a new discovery, and was still busy with her head down. It was not until Wu Zhongyuan pulled her that she followed Wu Zhongyuan's line of sight and saw the circular hole on the stone wall that was covered by a bush.

"It turns out that these things came down from above." Wang Xinran said,

"The terrain there is very high, and even if it rains heavily, you shouldn't rush there." Wu Zhongyuan said.

"Don't worry about this, do you want to find the bottom first, or the top first?" Wang Xinran looked up, looking for a climbing route.

"Look separately." After Wu Zhongyuan finished speaking, he jumped up and climbed on a protruding rock near the round hole with one hand, and observed the coffin in the grotto up close. Although the coffin was damaged, it was still intact Complete, looking at the wood, it should be a very precious golden nanmu.

But the grotto is round, and the coffin is square, and the volume of the coffin is larger than the opening of the grotto. I have tried several times, but I still can't pull the coffin out of the grotto.

Looking around the grotto, there are no small traces of inlaid compression. How did this coffin go in in the first place?

It was said that it was a separate operation. Wang Xinran had no intention to continue digging and sorting, and kept looking up. Seeing that Wu Zhongyuan could not drag the coffin out, he reminded, "Is there another hole?"

Wang Xinran's reminder did remind Wu Zhongyuan to give up dragging and climb to the top of the stone wall, and he found the clue. The mountain where the grotto is located is an isolated peak, only more than five meters high. On the north of the isolated peak is a large area that is flush with the mountain peak. Even higher than Shanlan, there may have been a torrential rain earlier, a lot of rainwater rushed down from the north, some of it flowed into the ravine on the right, and some rushed towards the peak.

This mountain is facing north and south. There is also a hole on the north side of the mountain, but this hole is square with a diameter of about two meters. At this time, a lot of silt has accumulated in this hole.

"Have you found anything?" Wang Xinran shouted from below.

"Yes." Wu Zhongyuan replied, he guessed that Qian Yunzhi would not bury his youngest son too far, nor would he bury his youngest son in the dark side, but he did not expect that Qian Yunzhi would hollow out the mountain to place the coffin , the location of this solitary peak is right in front of Qian Yunzhi's tomb.

Although there are a lot of funerary objects under the mountain wall, Wang Xinran was more concerned about what was in the coffin, so he gave up his work and went around to the top of the cliff. At this time, Wu Zhongyuan was digging the mud in the square hole with his bare hands.

"It turned out to be the opposite." Wang Xinran suddenly realized.

"Yes," Wu Zhongyuan said, "I only thought before that he would not bury the young son in the dark side, nor would he let the young son out of his sight, but I didn't expect him to dig a mountain for a tomb. This is the best of both worlds. , it's just a huge amount of work."

"Yes, this mountain is seven or eight meters long from north to south, and it is not easy to carve out such a large space." Wang Xinran wanted to light a cigarette, but when he touched his pocket, he remembered that the cigarette had already been smoked. Since there is no cigarette Can pump, simply reach out to help.

"If you want to bury someone, you just need to dig a hole. Why do you have to dig another one from the south?" Wang Xinran was puzzled.

"It is because of my love, but also because of feng shui considerations," Wu Zhongyuan picked out a gold ingot from the mud he took out, threw it aside, and continued to dig, "There are many differences between Yang Zhai and Yin Zhai. That is, the Yang house has doors and windows, while the Yin house has doors but no windows. With doors and no windows, there is no return. The round hole on the south side was originally supposed to be covered by camouflage, but it was weathered and crispy. I walked out of the window and rushed out some of the funeral objects inside."

"Why don't you open the door from the south, what's the point of this?" Wang Xinran asked casually.

Wu Zhongyuan shook his head, "This doesn't seem to be very important, but Qian Yunzhi's grave is in the north. He probably hopes that his children can open the door to go home, and open the window to see the distant scenery." /

Although Wu Zhongyuan's statement has no basis, Wang Xinran still accepts this explanation, because there are too many funerary objects in the tomb, which shows Qian Yunzhi's love for this young son, and this also indirectly explains that after the young son died of illness, Why did Qian Yunzhi get hit and die in depression?

The two started working together and quickly dug up the coffin. Wu Zhongyuan grabbed the coffin and pulled it outward with force, but there was also mud around the coffin and he couldn't drag it.

Only one person can reach out here, Wang Xinran couldn't help, so he climbed the stone wall and went down to the south, kicking vigorously with his feet, while Wu Zhongyuan pulled vigorously from the north, and the two worked together to finally drag the coffin out.

Compared with ordinary coffins, this coffin looks very small and is obviously used to bury children.

When Wu Zhongyuan prayed silently and apologized to the deceased, Wang Xinran couldn't wait to lift the lid of the coffin.

Because of the ventilation, the corpse in the coffin has been completely decomposed, even the bones are crispy, and the clothing has long been turned into dust. Since most of the funerary goods are placed outside the coffin, in the coffin, apart from the bones, only the owner of the tomb remains alive. Some jewelry to wear.

At a glance, there is no spirit stone.

Just when Wu Zhongyuan was disappointed, Wang Xinran pinched something from the corner of the coffin. Since it was pinched, it would not be very big.

Wu Zhongyuan took a closer look and saw that Wang Xinran was holding a Guanyin pendant made of Hetian jade. Judging from the color of the jade, it was undoubtedly carved by spirit stones, but it was very small, probably less than ten grams, and only other A quarter of the size of a spirit stone...
